A great experience to ride up in the lift with a view outside, then, stepping out of the lift to see the hotels you thought were skyscrapers looking rather small below. Great view down the "alley" of hotels in the Financial Centre and the Burj Khalifa and Lake.

Very friendly instructor and a safe, fun experience! It was my first time skydiving and I’ve always had a fear of heights, but everything was so well prepared. My instructor guided me to stay calm and relaxed and in the end, I had the most fun. Plus, the view was absolutely amazing!

Getting tickets was easy, the park was virtually empty all day, given how hot it was. We literally walked straight into rides time after time. I loved DreamWorks, especially the Dragon Gliders, my daughter loved Bullet Train, Madagascar ride and Now you see me coaster. The whole day was fantastic. Given how quiet it is, some rides open a bit later & not all shops & restaurants are open, but we managed fine.

The experience was really fun and unique, we enjoyed driving the ATV alone and especially that Ranjit, our professional driver, took us on a 4x4 trip in the desert. Ranjit was professional, kind and caring.
